I officially WIN at SOE Live!

Well, at swag packing at least! Remember the battle of the swag? Look at the final result! Tell me I am not a master packer? No checked baggage here. +20 organization and +25 stuffing technique

Sad to see SOE Live end; it’s always an awesome time. Be sure to watch Massively.com for a slew of stuff on this years convention, including a full gallery of pics and even a video (assuming that comes out decent enough!).

Houston, we have a(n inventory) problem

Full bag vs. SOE Live swag. I just wouldn’t be MJ without serious inventory management problems!

Ready… set… SOE Live!

So SOE Live is about to commence for me as press, and I must say, this is going to be a HECTIC week! Remember, I don’t just soak up all the info, I have to disseminate it all back to you. Just how busy? What you see here is my schedule so far — and that’s having already skipped many panels I want to attend! And all those large blocks of white space are not for sleep, no no no: Those are for writing! I’d say I can sleep when I am dead, but I will actually be a zombie on Friday night, so no sleep then either.

I can’t wait to share everything with you all, so watch Massively.com for all the juicy news and details!

What do you want to see at SOE Live?

OK folks — I am packing up and getting my schedule in order for what is arguably the greatest convention ever! In my experience, SOE Live is definitely the most fun to attend, and I wish you all could be there and experience it for yourself. Since I know many can’t (and even those who go can’t get to everything!), I want to try and cover the stuff you want to see and hear about most.

So my question to you is, what do you want to see? I’ll be covering for Massively.com so I will be attending panels galore, talking with the devs, and even wandering around as an undead minion! Look over the itinerary and let me know what you are dying to hear about and I’ll work at fitting that into the weekend for you. Then watch Massively closely for all the juicy results of my labors.

Have I mentioned how excited I am to go? I fly out Tuesday; this week is going to be a whirlwind of awesome!
